American Cup III

[Lori]

American Cup III is taking place this weekend in Green Bay, WI. Many of our RockerFund skaters will be competing, as well as some 'key players' that we all know and love who didn't make the team this time 'round.

Points gained in the AmCup series ARE important. The male and female winners for the season are invited to train with the National Team in SLC. Last year's winners were Travis Jayner and Alyson Dudek, and they subsequently made the National Team for the first half of the season - Travis is still part of the team for the final 2 World Cups.

There is no indication of any live feed (webcast or data feed) - USS's results site is currently our only hope - if they're quick with their results, this could still be fun.

However, if there is anyone 'lurking' out there who is attending the competition or can find any other way to update us, we'd be most grateful!

where's Simon Cho gone to?

where's Simon Cho gone to?

My guess is, back to the drawing board...

He didn't make the cut at USC (didn't make it out of the time trials), and I don't have a clue as to the reason. Maybe his absence from AmCup III is because he's choosing to focus on next season.

He's a very talented young skater, and I wish him the best of luck.

[maricorgi]

I'm sure it's been disappointing this year for Simon. He looked unhappy in Salt Lake and then disappeared pretty quickly in St Louis. I'd love to know his plan and how it's going.

Eddie Alvarez and (I think) Walter Rusk. (correct me please if I got it wrong)









I thought MY photos were just blurry, but look! It really must be artistic license! a photo's way of showing just HOW FAST the skaters are going! (and if ya believe that, I got some swampland....you know the rest)







Our TRF skater Dan Fiorenza (looks like he just earned himself that orange USA skinsuit)

Yes, Mtnme, that's Walter - and congrats to Dan The Man! ;D

Short track speedskaters storm Cornerstone ice

Ashwaubenon rink hosts American Cup 3 competition
By Andy Nelesen • [e-mail] • January 24, 2009

Buzz up! ASHWAUBENON — The world of short track speedskating will be focused on the Cornerstone Community Center this weekend as some of the country's top skaters compete in the American Cup 3 championships.


The World Cup and Olympic seedings aren't on the line this weekend. Instead, athletes are racing for points and standing that can affect national rankings and other races for the rest of the year.

Top short track speedskaters cover 111.12 meters — 364½ feet — in about eight seconds, reaching speeds of 28 mph on the oval ice track. Races range between 4½ laps for a 500-meter race to 27 laps for a 3,000-meter event. Most short track events are raced in heats, with the winners of individual heats advancing to a final round.

Short track racing is close-quarters and dangerous. Falls and crashes can lead to serious injury. And while victory can be decided by a fraction of a second, the time is not at issue; first one to the finish line wins the heat and advances.

"It's NASCAR on ice," said Don Chilson, manager of the Cornerstone center. "When they crash, it's something."

This is the first national event on the Cornerstone's Olympic-sized 100-foot wide rink.

The $4.3 million facility opened in February 2008 and augmented the center's two 85-foot wide ice sheets. The new ice made the event possible, said Shannon Holmes, American Cup 3 director and coach of the Cornerstone's local short track racing team.

"The racers are going so fast that without the extra room, it just wouldn't be safe when they are coming out of the corners," Holmes said. "It's a matter of safety."

Chilson said he hopes this meet will be the first in a series of national events at the Conerstone's Resch Olympic Pavilion. Only a handful of Olympic-sized ice rinks are in the state, he said.

The bulk of the world-class skaters on the rink this weekend hail from the Marquette, Mich., National Olympic Training Center. Many have prospects of making a World Cup or Olympic team in the future.

Wausau's Dan Fiorenza, 17, has been skating since he was 5. He finished high school a year early and now trains at the Marquette rink.

"I hope to make the Junior World team for next year and then my goal is the 2014 Olympics," Fiorenza said after a workout Thursday. "It's full devotion to this sport. You're always training."

Fiorenza is one of seven Wisconsin skaters competing in the weekend event. The weekend also holds the Cheese Cup, a meet for the Midwest's club teams.

Fiorenza draws parallels between stock car racing and speed skating.

"It's the same thing, except on ice," he said. "We're constantly drafting and passing. It's all about the strategy of the sport and there's speed involved … and there's crashes. It can be intense."

Skaters talk about the rush of racing.

"There's definitely adrenaline involved at the starting line," said Kathleen Russell, 16, of Petoskey, Mich., another member of the Marquette team.

"It can be scary," she said. "It's a kind a mystery, too. You never know what's going to happen at the next turn."

[number1fan]

i'm afraid to ask...but where was jonathan sermeno

PLEASE don't tell me he's injured or couldn't make this competition for financial reasons.

[Lori]

Jon's not injured (that I know of).

Maybe someone knows more about the process than me, but I seem to have heard that the skaters give priority to AmCup 1 & the AmCup Final, and frequently choose to attend only one of the other 2.
